Rahul Gandhi is scheduled to visit his constituency from October 4 to 6. He said while his request was not considered, the authorities would ensure "all-round security" for the Congress leader.

He said BJP President Amit Shah had been travelling in every nook and corner of the country during festivals, on holidays and on normal days for the last three years but he was never stopped by any District Magistrate on the pretext that police force was not available.

Speaking to ANI here, BJP spokesperson S. Prakash said, "The Congress party is free to have his own president of their choice".

Uttar Pradesh Congress Committee chief Raj Babbar termed the attempt to postpone Rahul's visit by the district administration an act of "cowardice and fear".

At a press conference in New Delhi later in the day, Congress spokesman Abhishek Manu Singhvi said that the district administration's suggestion to postpone visit was "mala fide and discriminatory". Mr Gandhi is scheduled to visit his constituency from October 4 to 6. Further attacking the Congress vice president Tripathi said that many promises made by Rahul are still incomplete.

The district administration said that they no longer have any issue of the Amethi parliamentarian visits his constituency.
